Summary
What's the secret to losing weight? Going vegan! One of the best benefits of switching to a plant-based diet is that the pounds melt away! Many even slim down without spending hours in the gym or counting calories. Is it a miracle? No!
Join "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll, who lost 275 pounds, as he learns the secrets behind vegan weight loss. Dr. Steve Neabore joins the show to explain how the digestive process changes on a plant-based diet and stimulates weight loss and why calorie-counting becomes a thing of the past! Plus, is there such a thing as a fat gene? Find out!
Registered dietitian Aly Luning then gives her Top 5 Weight Loss Tips on a vegan diet. You'll also hear the insane amount of chicken Americans eat every hour and the role that plays in skyrocketing obesity rates.
